if there is a site similar to MFP that would measure your child's calories and protien and all that? My 5 year old has feeding issues and dietary restrictions and I'd love something like this that would keep track of his daily nutrients, so I can be sure he's getting his needs met.

    You could get his calorie requirements off another site (USDA site gives children info). And then set up an account for him with the goal of maintaining or gaining weight. Then go back in and choose Goals > Custom and make the necessary changes to nutritent percentages, etc. You can even change the daily calories to what you need it to be.

    Could work...

    I don't know of anything out there, but I'm sure you could set one up on here for him, and just change his goals so it doesn't have him at a deficit.
